Beta elements were seen as cognate to the underpinnings of the " basic assumptions " identified in his work with groups: " the fundamental anxieties that underlie the basic assumption group resistances were originally thought of as proto-mental phenomena ... forerunners of Bion's later concept of beta-elements.

The evolution of emotional experience into the capacity for thought, and the potential derailment of this process, are the primary phenomena described in Bion's model.

In Bion's terms, the phantasy image is a preconception that will not be a thought until experience combines with a realization in the world of experience.

Besides Adonis, other myths that appear in his work are those of Hyacinthus and the Cyclops ; to judge from references in the Epitaph on Bion, which frequently alludes to Bion's work, he also wrote a poem on Orpheus, to which some of the extant fragments may have belonged.

Some information concerning Bion's life comes from the Epitaph on Bion.

This was to prove an important influence on Bion's interest in group behaviour.

" Bion's daughter, Parthenope ... raises the question of just how ( and how far ) her father was shaped as an analyst by his wartime experiences ... underinning Bion's later concern with the coexistence of regressed or primitive proto-mental states alongside more sophisticated one ".

It may, however, mean only that the author considered himself Bion's poetic heir.

The Greek texts of Bion's poems are generally included in the editions of Theocritus.

Bion's influence can be seen in numerous ancient Greek and Latin poets and prose authors, including Virgil and Ovid.

During the war Bion's wife gave birth to a daughter, but, tragically, she died soon afterwards.

Bion's theories, which were always based in the phenomena of the analytic encounter, eventually revealed radical departures from both Kleinian and Freudian theory.

Wilfred Bion's observations about the role of group processes in group dynamics are set out in Experiences in Groups where he refers to recurrent emotional states of groups as basic assumptions.

Such phantasies would prove the main focus of Bion's interest after his second ( Kleinian ) analysis.

Primarily as a support to other processes, both in infrastructure management and service management, technical support provides a number of specialist functions: research and evaluation, market intelligence ( particularly for design and planning and capacity management ), proof of concept and pilot engineering, specialist technical expertise ( particularly to operations and problem management ), creation of documentation ( perhaps for the operational documentation library or known error database ).

Under a physical concept of capital, such as operating capability, capital is regarded as the productive capacity of the entity based on, for example, units of output per day.

Under this concept a profit is earned only if the physical productive capacity ( or operating capability ) of the entity ( or the resources or funds needed to achieve that capacity ) at the end of the period exceeds the physical productive capacity at the beginning of the period, after excluding any distributions to, and contributions from, owners during the period.

Under the concept of physical capital maintenance when capital is defined in terms of the physical productive capacity, profit represents the increase in that capital over the period.
